The Birds' Paradise is a small island with a long history. It has a long history of large banyan trees. It is a forest of woods and is known for its thousands of birds. This is exactly what Mr. Ba Jin's "Bird's Paradise" describes here. The birds are out of the nest and the scenery of the birds returning to the nest is spectacular. The birds on the island are more egrets and grey herons. The egrets return to the evening, and the grey herons squat out in the morning. They alternate each other, morning and evening, circling and flying, and they are very spectacular.Jiangmen · 13.6km from downtown

This is a highly recommended place to take kids. It's a bit pricey, but it's definitely fun. I recommend the shows: "Sky High" is very moving, and the fire show is also great. "Modern Times" is not good and not interesting. The tram is quite fun.

It's a perfect spot for couples. In the evening, they can walk hand in hand across the Water Dragon Bridge, with lanterns reflecting in the river and oars creaking in the distance. It's romantic without even saying a word, much more sophisticated than a date in a shopping mall.

Although visiting the Yinglong Tower was frustrating, the watchtowers in Zili Village were excellent, and the service at the scenic area was great, which eased my anger from the previous trip. Several large watchtowers can be climbed and visited, offering beautiful views. There are also watchtower cafes where you can cool off. Chikan Ancient Town was also very nice. Overall, I give my Kaiping vacation a good review.

Visiting the Bird Paradise described by Ba Jin is a delightful experience, and a boat tour is a delightful treat. The century-old banyan tree forms a lush forest, and we were fortunate enough to see egrets soaring overhead. It's a perfect place for relaxation and unwinding, and definitely worth bringing children to experience the beauty described in their textbooks.

下川岛是广东江门台山市的一个小众宝藏海岛,有着非常优美的海景! 清晨,第一缕阳光洒在床上,拉开窗帘,就能看到海浪轻吻沙滩,椰树林摇曳生姿。夜晚,躺在床上,与漫天繁星对话,枕着涛声入睡。早起赶海,沙滩漫步、捡贝壳、堆沙堡.各类海鲜丰盛。

Stayed at the Red Sea Hotel, had dinner on the first floor of the hotel, and there is a KTV on the Costa side. The surrounding area is complete, with pharmacies, restaurants, and convenience stores. It's not crowded in the off-season, so it's pretty good, but it's a bit troublesome to take a boat or a car.

I highly recommend it. I won't even mention the Kaiping Diaolou (watchtowers), but Chikan really left a deep impression on me. You absolutely must see the fire show; it's breathtaking. Don't rush off afterward, there's still a live performance – it's incredibly exciting!
